Oh oh oo….
As huge as the Chembarambakkam lake,
I have a thirst to drink.
Giving me just a tiny mug of water
and staying quiet, what nerve you have!
Oh oh oh... oh oh... oh... oh oh... oh...
Hey, don't invite a woman's curse,
don't just pull over the blanket and fall asleep.
If all men end up like this,
will Lord Manmadha (God of love) ever forgive you?
Mmm... mhm... mmm... mhm... mmm... mhm...
If I am to sleep tonight,
you are my only sleeping pill!
Making me wait like this,
don't drive me crazy with frustration!
If I am to sleep tonight,
you are my only sleeping pill!
Hey, making me wait like this,
don't drive me crazy with frustration!
Oh oh oh... oh oh... oh... oh oh... oh...
When passion rises, my whole body
heats up like a sizzling pan!
Cool it down completely,
satisfy every single longing of mine,
do plenty more of it,
for this present moment alone is real!
Let's not waste our time,
let's swim like fish in water!
Oh oh oh... oh oh... oh... oh oh... oh...
What does a magnet care about price?
It just has to cling to the metal!
My youthful age leaps with excitement,
it tells me to bend you into my arms,
it keeps pinching my heart,
your beauty steals my breath away!
Desire is no sin at all,
a man and a woman are meant to unite... ah...
Mmm... mhm... mmm... mhm... mmm... mhm...
As huge as the Chembarambakkam lake,
I have a thirst to drink.
Giving me just a tiny mug of water
and staying quiet, what nerve you have!
Oh oh oh... oh oh... oh... oh oh... oh...
If I am to sleep tonight,
you are my only sleeping pill!
Making me wait like this,
don't drive me crazy with frustration!
If I am to sleep tonight,
you are my only sleeping pill!
Hey, making me wait like this,
don't drive me crazy with frustration!
...
Oh oh oh... oh oh... oh... oh oh... oh...
As huge as the Chembarambakkam lake,
I have a thirst to drink.
Giving me just a tiny mug of water
and staying quiet, what nerve you have!
Oh oh oh...
